Tuesday Tales

Singer Chris Brown finally appeared in court for an audit of his court ordered community service hours, and it's been determined that he failed a drug test. Brown admitted to smoking marijuana in California, and has a prescription for the drug, but the hearing took place in his home state of Virginia. Marijuana is illegal in the state of Virginia, so only time will tell what will happen regarding that matter. The judge ordered another hearing regarding Brown's community service hours. He's due back in court in November. Court depositions are not fun, unless you're rapper Lil Wayne. The New Orleans native was asked a series of questions during a recent deposition, none of which he could answer. The rapper is in the process of suing producer Quincy Jones /// over a documentary centered around the rapper's life. Although he participated in the footage, Wayne claims the producer used his music in the film without his consent. Only time will tell when and how this will play out so stay tuned.  As mentioned previously, Def Jam Records tweeted that it had an announcement to make regarding singer Rihanna, but later deleted the tweet. Now, a press release has confirmed that the singer will preview her new album tomorrow, and a single, "Diamonds", will be released to radio at 8 p.m. tomorrow. It will be available on iTunes an hour later. That should be good news to fans. With fall quickly approaching, the networks are pulling out all the stops to get the attention of viewers this fall. Each major network has returning favorites as well some new shows lined up, and it's anyone's guest which shows will survive a full season and which ones won't. Stay tuned. On DVD: "Marvel's The Avengers", "Bond, 50", "Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Part 1" and "Damsels In Distress". On the tube: "New Girl" on Fox, "NCIS" on CBS, "Dancing With The Stars: All Stars Live" on ABC and "The Voice" on NBC. Happy Tuesday!
